SEVENTEEN AGAIN (2009)
SYNOPSIS
What would you do if you got a second shot at life?
Class of 1989, Mike O'Donnell (Zac Efron) is a star on
the high school basketball court with a college scout in
the stands and a bright future in his grasp. But instead,
he decides to throw it all away to share his life with his
girlfriend Scarlet and the baby he just learned they are
expecting.
Almost 20 years later, Mike's (Matthew Perry) glory
days are decidedly behind him. His marriage to Scarlet
(Leslie Mann) has fallen apart, he has been passed
over for a promotion at work, his teenage kids think he
is a loser, and he has been reduced to crashing with
his high school nerd-turned-techno-billionaire best
friend Ned (Thomas Lennon).
But Mike is given another chance when he is
miraculously transformed back to the age of 17.
Unfortunately, Mike may look 17 again, but his
thirtysomething outlook is totally uncool among the
class of 2009.
And in trying to recapture his best years, Mike could
lose the best things that ever happened to him.
